Re: How to check and update tape drive firmware

Hi Imran,

In order to upgrade firmware you could use Library and Tape Tools as mentioned in the previous posts. I understand that one of the library drives is performing slow. I would suggest you check the same tape on a different drive. Also with Library and Tape Tools you may run the DevPerf test ( Device performance) to check the I/O throughput acheived between the host and drive.A Drive assessment test (under the "tests" function) would help us understand the curent health status of the drive.
